Kelly Successfully Challenges Sheriff Over Permit to Carry Denial; All Legal Costs Reimbursed

Kelly’s client retained her after being denied a permit to carry by the Dakota County Sheriff’s Office due to a previous charge of felony fleeing an officer that was sentenced as a gross misdemeanor conviction. Kelly examined his record and determined the sheriff’s denial was incorrect, filing a writ of mandamus in Dakota County Court to compel the sheriff to issue the permit to her client. Prior to the court hearing the county agreed to settle, issuing Kelly’s client his permit to carry and fully reimbursing him for all his legal expenses.
